Chapter 294

Huo Xuan was finally scared, and roared hoarsely at the top of his voice, "Dad, what are you doing!" My son knows it's wrong, I know it's wrong, you go around your son once, don't you always tolerate your son, why did you suddenly do this this time! Daddy, Daddy! ”

Jin Anhou's eyes were full of ups and downs, and in his pupils, a little unbearable and melancholy gradually surfaced.

After staying in place and being silent for a moment, he forcibly pressed his mind and was about to speak, but at the end of the trail, a cry of sorrow came again.

He subconsciously turned his eyes, and saw a famous woman in a golden robe at the end of the path surrounded by maidservants.

In an instant, his pupils shrank and his brows furrowed. Huo Xuan seemed to see a life-saving straw, and roared at the woman at the end of the path, "Mother, mother, you save me, my father is going to send me to the palace to die, my mother will save me!" ”

As soon as the woman ran closer, she burst into tears first, and then hurriedly pulled Huo Xuan behind her to protect her, and said sadly: "Master Hou, what are you doing? This is Xuan'er, what mistake did he make, you have to torture him like this! ”

Jin Anhou's eyes were far away, and he gradually looked away, his brows furrowed, and he didn't speak immediately.

After being silent for a long time, and when the woman was crying silently, he said in a low voice: "He intends to take the life of the eldest princess of Tanglin today and anger the new emperor." Now my Jin'an Houfu is in turmoil, and I don't know when the new emperor will raid my house and destroy my door. I brought him into the palace today, just to exchange his life for the peace of my Jin'an Waiting Mansion. If you can't change it, or if you can't quench the anger of the new emperor, madam, at that time, I hope you don't wait for me in the mansion, take my talisman and a few heavy generals as soon as possible, and escape from Chujing as soon as possible. ”

As soon as these words fell, he didn't say more, and even ignored the woman's shocked and stunned reaction, just stepped forward without looking back: "Bring the son of the world and come with Benhou." ”

The sky is gradually darkening.

Just after dusk, the majestic palace has been lit up on all sides, and the lights are on.

Since he was taken out of the palace by Lan Yeyu today, Sihan sat on the soft couch with his arms and knees crossed, looking blank and distant, without focus.

She just sat like this, sitting without saying a word, even if Lan Yeyu had spoken to her all the way in the carriage before, she didn't react at all, stopped making a sound, and didn't even bother to do the most basic casual response.

Seeing her like this, Lan Yeyu took her back to Surabaya Residence, and sat silently with her for a long time, and only when the ghost outside the hall reported that there was another difference at the border pass, he got up and left slowly.

Now in this huge main hall, the lights are bright, and the incense burner in the corner of the wall is wisps of smoke.

The surrounding sandalwood floats, safe and quiet, but even so, the melancholy and chaos in the bottom of the heart have not been alleviated by the sandalwood pine, on the contrary, more and more, more and more, more and more dense, so thick that it is completely uncontrollable.

All the anger and viciousness of today have now turned into sneers and melancholy.

Yes, I lament my own incompetence, and even more so my own humility and insignificance.

Although she has always been forcibly calm and strong, she now knows that she is still an ordinary person after all, she will eventually be tired, and there will be an emotional collapse in the end.

She sat stiffly on the soft couch for a long time, and she didn't even know that her legs were stiff and numb.

The palace slaves guarding outside the hall did not dare to gasp, for fear that they would disturb the living ancestors in the hall and suffer a catastrophe when the time came.

Such a quiet and oppressive atmosphere lasted until the third watch in the middle of the night.

There was a very rhythmic sound of snorting, coming from afar, some distant, some hazy. This sound entered the ears, as if it was knocked through the eardrum over and over again at the bottom of the heart, and in a moment, the last ripple in the heart was all smoothed out.

After a while, after waiting for more noise, suddenly, a few footsteps came from afar.

Because the night was too silent, the surroundings were silent, and the footsteps coming from afar were undoubtedly abrupt, completely disturbing all the peace around them.

Sihan replied, the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and his cold and thin eyes gradually looked towards the palace door.

The lights are floating, the light and shadow are heavy, and the room is swaying. Even those who don't see outsiders can hear a light and gentle footstep sound from the slightly messy footsteps, the footsteps, not shallow or heavy, into the ears, extremely familiar.

She hooked her lips and smiled, sneering to herself, only to say when she became so familiar with that Lan Yeyu! In a few footsteps, he could only distinguish his footsteps.

As the footsteps outside the hall got closer and closer, the sneer on Sihan's face became more and more intense.

Soon, all the footsteps outside stopped abruptly outside the temple gate. Immediately, on the carved wooden door, there was a lot of light and shadow, and suddenly a hand shadow touched the temple door, and then, pushed slightly.

Instantly, the door of the temple creaked, and the muffled sound of the wooden doors instantly disturbed the silence around them.

Sihan's gaze fell towards the door, and he saw that at the front of the door, there was a long and slender figure. The man, still against the light, couldn't see his face clearly, but when the man slowly stepped into the hall and approached a little, he saw that the man had taken the mask on his face, his face was as elegant as jade, and the elegance was still the same, but the pupils that fell towards her were deep and complex, and they were not dyed with the usual half of the warm smile.

He seemed to be extremely tired, and the closer he got, the more abrupt the red blood in his pupils became.

Thinking about last night, when this person came over, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was tired, even if he was fighting his spirit, his face was smiling as warm as the wind, but even so, the tired color on his body still couldn't be completely covered by him.

Thinking about it, there are many things at the border, how can this Lan Yeyu sit safely? It is because he is busy with political affairs and does not sleep, so that he can be so tired and red-eyed.

"Dinner tonight?"

Sihan stared at him quietly, without any expression on his face. When she saw him standing in front of her, she heard him say this.

Her pupils shrank slightly, and she gradually looked away from him, as if she hadn't heard him, and said nothing.

Lan Yeyu stared at her for a moment, and finally turned around and asked the palace slave to pass the meal. When the palace slave quickly and cleverly placed the hot dishes on the small table in front of the soft couch, he waved away the palace slave, took the initiative to bend over and sit down beside Sihan, and said in a low voice: "The border is urgent, does the eldest princess know why?" ”

Sihan raised the corners of his eyes, and said it unintentionally.

Lan Yeyu stared at her deeply, sighed, and said calmly and distantly: "The eldest princess doesn't even want to talk to Weichen now?" ”

Sihan's eyes were cold, his pupils shrank, and after being silent for a long time, his lips finally opened, and he said in a low voice, "Between you and this palace, there is no longer anything to say, so, what does the regent want to say to this palace?" ”

When these words came into his ears, Lan Yeyu's expression moved slightly, and there were some complicated ups and downs in his red pupils.

"The eldest princess is still annoyed by today's events?" He did not answer the rhetorical question, although the blurt out was a question, but the meaning of the straightforward statement in his tone was undisguised.

These words are undoubtedly in the middle of his heart, and after thinking about it, he feels that his words are not weighty enough.

After all, now she is full of depression and her mood is broken, and the reason for this is not only because of today's events, but also because of various constraints and powerlessness. Those dilapidated and powerless feelings, intertwined layer by layer, eroded all her ambition and arrogance one by one, and it was only in this state that she was in such a state, and she was not interested in everything at all, let alone wanted to pay attention to anyone.

Now, she just wants to be alone. Maybe after being alone, her mood will recover, and she will be able to completely return to her strong and even stubborn appearance.

"Today's matter, as far as the Lord Regent is concerned, is not at fault. After all, between you and this palace, you have different identities and different positions, so what happened these days is not the fault of the regent, but just that your position and fate are like this. Now, the palace does not mean to blame the regent, but suddenly feels tired, if the regent can still remember the affection for you in the Tanglin palace, I hope the regent will leave as soon as possible and leave the palace alone. ”

She was silent for a moment before she spoke out in a low voice.

However, as soon as these words fell, Lan Yeyu's gentle and distant voice sounded again, "There are some contradictions in my heart, even if I am alone, I may not be able to figure it out on my own." Moreover, although the eldest princess did not speak, Weichen knew that the eldest princess had been trapped in Chujing for the past few days, and she was unhappy and depressed. ”

Sihan hooked his lips and sneered, his voice was calm, "Since the regent knows, why bother to say it." ”

All the thoughts of the eldest princess were expressed on her face, and Wei Chen naturally knew. It's just that when he said it this time, Wei Chen didn't want to explain anything, but wanted to say something important to the eldest princess. His voice was still flat and distant, but it was something to say.

Sihan slightly restrained the smile on his lips, was silent for a moment, and turned his eyes to stare at him, "What's the matter?" ”

He stared at her deeply, and then smiled slightly, "The eldest princess will eat a few bites of food first." ”

He suddenly changed the topic, and when Sihan frowned, he had already stretched out his hand slightly, and handed Sihan chopsticks very gently, "These meals are all light and nourishing, the eldest princess can eat more." Maybe in a few days, the eldest princess will set off back to Tanglin, at that time, the road is rushing, eating and sleeping, if the eldest princess is not energetic enough, weak, it may be difficult to arrive in Tanglin quickly, deal with it, Tanglin important matters. ”

What is Tanglin important?

These words suddenly hit the bottom of my heart heavily.

The corners of Sihan's eyes were raised, and his pupils shrank, "But what happened to Tanglin in the past few days?" ”

Her voice was a little uncontrollable tight, and she was silent and numb in the bottom of her heart, but it still quickly made waves after all. These days, she has indeed been worried about Tanglin, just because she has been trapped in Chujing during this time, and she can't return to China, because she is worried about Tanglin.

Although Tanglin has Zhan Wenyi or a national teacher in charge, but she is still at ease, Zhan Wenyi is a businessman after all, although she is extremely capable in her eyes, but the courtiers above and below the country also have a lot of complaints about Zhan Wenyi's promotion from Shangjia to the emperor, it is to preside over the overall situation in Tanglin with Zhan Wenyi, and may not be able to really suppress the arrogance of the courtiers.

In this way, once Zhan Wenyi can't suppress the courtiers, and the national teacher is not very good at handling court affairs, like this for a long time, Tanglin will be shaken in all directions.

At this point, the ups and downs in my heart rose and surged.

She couldn't help but stare at him with deep eyes, waiting for him to reply.

However, Lan Yeyu still intended to go around with her, and the pair of chopsticks handed to her became closer and closer to her.

"The eldest princess eats first."

His voice was still calm, but in the midst of no waves, it was unabashedly mixed with a little stubbornness and persistence, as if he wanted to force her to compromise.

Sihan's brows furrowed more and more, and he stared at him for a long time, but he finally suppressed all the ups and downs and arrogance in his heart, and then raised his hand slightly to take the chopsticks from his fingertips.

He naturally lowered his eyes, and a slight look of relief in his pupils quickly slid through. After glancing at the chopsticks in Sihan's hand, he began to quietly hold the chopsticks in a bowl.

When everything was finished, he slowly handed the bowl with the meal to Sihan.

Sihan's eyes were full of coldness, he didn't speak, he didn't delay, he just reached out to pick it up.

When she swallowed a bite of the dish completely fearlessly, Lan Yeyu stared at her for a moment before she also began to eat.

For a while, both of them did not make a sound with a slight tacit understanding, and they just lowered their eyes and ate, but their faces were complex and distant, and their hearts were heavy.

The surrounding atmosphere was once again silent and suppressed, and in the silence, the heavy meaning was fully revealed.

After staying for a long time, Sihan finally put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, raised his eyes to stare at him, and said in a low voice, "The palace has already eaten, and the regent is now, but it's time to point out the so-called important things for the palace?" ”

The corners of Lan Yeyu's eyes twitched slightly, and he didn't speak immediately.

He only put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand slightly, slowly straightened the folds on his robe, and didn't even glance at Sihan, but stared at the green smoke and wisps of incense in the corner with his eyes full of distantness, and then opened his thin lips and said slowly and distantly: "The news that Concubine Shu died in the Tanglin Palace has spread far and wide. Today's Tanglin Kyoto City is already full of wind and rain. There are many theories, and all of them are that the eldest princess is greedy for power and wants to kill all the old concubines and princes in the palace. ”

Sihan's pupils shrank suddenly, and his complexion changed almost imperceptibly. Although there was not much reaction on the face, deep in the heart, there were undoubtedly waves and complexities.

After all, paper can't contain fire. After all, she knew that sooner or later, Concubine Shu's matter would be made public, but she didn't expect that Concubine Shu's death would break out at the juncture of her absence in Tanglin Kyoto.

She was full of coldness, forcibly suppressed her thoughts, and said in a low voice: "Then what? Nowadays, the court can be stable, and the people's hearts can be peaceful? ”

Her voice is extremely low and deep, even if she is forcibly calming down, and then blurts out her voice, which is extremely complex and even thick.

In fact, there is no need for Lan Yeyu to say much, she also knows that once the death of Concubine Shu is fermented, she will not only have to be in public opinion. In terms of whirlpools, her reputation is becoming more and more infamous, and her uncle who is most worried about her must really incite the people because of this and deliberately cause trouble.

I don't know if the national teacher and Zhan Wenyi can deal with this slightly out-of-control scene, and whether they can really suppress Uncle Guo. After all, Uncle Guo was already ambitious, and he was extremely dissatisfied with her Yan Sihan and the young emperor, so with such an opportunity this time, how could he not take advantage of the east wind and fight desperately.

"Tanglin can be stable up and down, and people's hearts can be at ease, presumably the eldest princess should be able to guess. Moreover, as soon as Concubine Shu died, the eldest princess thought about it, who would make a big fuss about this matter and wantonly criticize the eldest princess's prestige and imperial power? Pick-up"

Lan Yeyu didn't reply clearly, but only made a sound in a gentle and distant way.

Sihan's eyes were complex, and his face was like frost.

"Uncle Guo?"

She was silent for a moment before she spoke out gloomily and coldly.

Lan Yeyu's expression was distant, and he didn't speak immediately, but began to stretch out his hand slightly, took the cold tea on the low table, and began to take a sip.

"If something happens to Concubine Shu, Uncle Guo will take advantage of the situation, but the eldest princess may have forgotten someone."

After a while, his thin lips opened slightly, and he spoke slowly.

These words hit the ears wantonly, and they are undoubtedly rippling and enduring. Sihan frowned, his thoughts were churning, he just said that most of the courtiers above and below the country were just grass on the wall, and there were not many people who really dared to take the initiative to make trouble. Moreover, this time the court is still pressed by Zhan Wenyi and the national teacher, yes, who can take the initiative to make trouble in disregard of the prestige of the national teacher and Zhan Wenyi, except for the national uncle, who else can there be?

For a moment, doubts arose in my heart, and coldness floated. The courtiers who began to live in the court over and over again began to live in their minds, but after thinking about it, they really couldn't think of who dared to do things with Uncle Guo.

My heart was churning for a long time, but it was fruitless. In the silent and depressing atmosphere, she raised her eyes again, looked at Lan Yeyu with complicated ups and downs, and said in a low voice: "If the regent has something to say, why bother selling it." Compensation"

Lan Yeyu raised the corners of his eyes slightly, and turned his eyes to look at her, and the pair of pitch-black and gentle pupils met Sihan's eyes just right.

In an instant, the two of them were speechless, but the expressions in their pupils were complex and gloomy, and the other was calm and indifferent, which was undoubtedly very different.

After staying for a long time, Sihan became more and more impatient in his heart, and finally took his eyes away from his pupils first, and was about to continue to ask, but before the words could be blurted out, he heard Lan Yeyu say slowly and distantly: "Third prince, Zheqian." The eldest princess only guessed her uncle, but she forgot the third prince Zheqian. ”

Zheqian ......

These two words entered the ear, and instantly touched the nerves in the brain.

She suddenly stiffened uncontrollably, her pupils fluctuated violently, and her thoughts also fluctuated, noisy and messy, completely, a little unbelievable.

How could it be Zheqian!

Before Zheqian left the imperial city, she had met him a few times, and even talked to him a few times, although she was extremely wary of Zheqian at that time, but Zheqian gave her the feeling that it was not a great evil after all, but more like a wandering away from the world, unwilling to participate in the Tanglin dispute.

But now, Na Zheqian finally changed his original intention, trying to work with his uncle to subvert the imperial power of Tanglin?

The more I thought about it, the more complicated my complexion became.

For a moment, Sihan sat stiffly, his head lowered, his whole body was tense and heavy, and he didn't say anything more.

Lan Yeyu didn't say anything, and her dark and deep pupils were still quietly falling towards her.
